Hyperbaric welding

Hyperbaric welding is the process of welding at elevated pressures, normally underwater. Hyperbaric welding can either take place wet in the water itself or dry inside a specially constructed positive pressure enclosure and hence a dry environment. It is predominantly referred to as "hyperbaric welding" when used in a dry environment, and "underwater welding" when in a wet environment. The applications of hyperbaric welding are diverse—it is often used to repair ships, offshore oil platforms, and pipelines. Steel is the most common material welded.

Dry hyperbaric welding is used in preference to wet underwater welding when high quality welds are required because of the increased control over conditions which can be exerted, such as through application of prior and post weld heat treatments. This improved environmental control leads directly to improved process performance and a generally much higher quality weld than a comparative wet weld. Thus, when a very high quality weld is required, dry hyperbaric welding is normally utilized. Research into using dry hyperbaric welding at depths of up to 1,000 metres (3,300ft) is ongoing. In general, assuring the integrity of underwater welds can be difficult (but is possible using various nondestructive testing applications), especially for wet underwater welds, because defects are difficult to detect if the defects are beneath the surface of the weld.

Peddodu is an introvert, who lives life on his own terms and is unsociable. Although Seetha wants to marry him, her love is apparently unrequited. Chinnodu is the opposite of his brother. He falls in love with Geetha, the daughter of Seetha's paternal uncle who is jealous of Chinnodu's father and denigrates his family's economic status. Although the family is close-knit, the brothers do not communicate well with each other. Geetha's sister recommends a marriage for Chinni to a relative of her in-laws. At the wedding, Peddodu and Geetha's father argue in the backyard about the latter's sarcasm, increasing tensions further. Several days later, the brothers plan to leave for Hyderabad to find work. Geetha invites Chinnodu to lunch without without telling him that her whole family will be there. Chinnodu and Geetha's father argue, again over the latter's sarcasm. When Geetha tries to calm the former, Peddodu is upset after knowing about their love affair. He abruptly leaves Relangi and Chinnodu, dejected, stays behind. This affects his relationship with Geetha, whose father has found her a husband. Although Seetha is also pressured to marry a man suggested by Geetha's father, Peddodu and distant relative Kondala Rao convince the bridegroom to reject the proposal. Relangi Uncle is injured in an accident in an attempt to save a young man. His condition stabilises, and the young man turns out to be the son of Peddodu's former boss' brother. The former employer apologises for his past misbehaviour, and offers Peddodu another job; the gulf between the brothers widens. Peddodu, Chinnodu and their family visit Bhadrachalam Templefor Rama Navami, the annual kalyana of Rama and Sita, and meet Geetha's family there. The guest of honour, an MLA, asks Relangi Uncle to participate in the procession. Geetha's father is surprised by this, and an electrical problem then arises. With help from volunteers and the police the brothers save the day, setting aside their differences and rescuing Geetha's family. Relangi Uncle praises the brothers for their courage, telling them about them the importance of family, love and brotherhood. This changes their attitude and that of Geetha's father, who is eavesdropping on the conversation. Seetha is overjoyed to see the brothers reunited, and for the first time, Peddodu calls her by name instead of "Hey!" and "Oy!". They are married, and Chinnodu and Geetha's wedding is planned after her father reconciles with Relangi Uncle's family. The brothers send gold bangles to their grandmother, evidence that they have found work.

The drilling industry is facing challenging market conditions that motivate the use of automation to reduce costs and decrease well manufacturing variability. The objective of this presentation is to motivate automation initiatives that utilize high-speed data to directly measure downhole conditions or physics-based models for predictive monitoring and control. This presentation explores opportunities and challenges in well manufacturing by combining high-speed data and physics-based models to both estimate and control critical drilling conditions. Methods such as ensemble control automatically switch between high speed data, physics-based models, and lower-order models in a similar manner to redundant mechanical or electrical backup systems that increase uptime and reliability. The automation adjusts choke valve opening in the case of unexpected gas influx and to maintain pressure during drilling and connection procedures. Principles of smart manufacturing are being applied to achieve consistent and reliable performance. Two developments include reliable high speed data communication offered by wired drill pipe telemetry and advances in physics-based modeling of borehole hydraulics and drillstring dynamics. The approach to smart well manufacturing has the potential to reduce drilling costs and improve consistency, especially in Managed Pressure Drilling (MPD) where tight pressure control and maximized rate of penetration are key performance indicators. Automation case studies demonstrate the value of high speed data and predictive models in land and offshore drilling. In additional to a survey of the latest automation developments, several new ways of thinking about drilling control are discussed. For example, rate optimization and pressure control have traditionally been separate applications. Simulation studies suggest significant potential improvement when combining the two applications. New methods for automation and future directions are proposed for further development.
John Hedengren is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Chemical Engineering at Brigham Young University. He received a PhD degree in Chemical Engineering from the University of Texas at Austin. Previously, he developed the APMonitor Optimization Suite and worked with ExxonMobil on Advanced Process Control for 5 years. His primary research focuses on accelerating automation technology in drilling. Other research interests include fiber optic monitoring, Intelli-fields, reservoir optimization, and unmanned aerial systems. In addition to drilling automation, he is a leader of the Center for Unmanned Aircraft Systems (C-UAS), applying UAV computer vision and optimization technology to energy and infrastructure monitoring.

Principles of smart manufacturing are being applied to achieve consistent and reliable performance. Two developments include reliable high speed data communication offered by wired drill pipe telemetry and advances in physics-based modeling of borehole hydraulics and drillstring dynamics. The approach to smart well manufacturing has the potential to reduce drilling costs and improve consistency, especially in Managed Pressure Drilling (MPD) where tight pressure control and maximized rate of penetration are key performance indicators. Automation case studies demonstrate the value of high speed data and predictive models in land and offshore drilling. In additional to a survey of the latest automation developments, several new ways of thinking about drilling control are discussed. For example, rate optimization and pressure control have traditionally been separate applications. Simulation studies suggest significant potential improvement when combining the two applications. New methods for automation and future directions are proposed for further development.

The Trans-Alaska Pipeline System (TAPS) includes the trans-Alaska crude-oil pipeline, 12 pump stations, several hundred miles of feeder pipelines, and the Valdez MarineTerminal. TAPS is one of the world's largest pipeline systems. It is commonly called the Alaska pipeline, trans-Alaska pipeline, or Alyeska pipeline, (or the pipeline as referred to in Alaska), but those terms technically apply only to the 800 miles (1,287 km) of the pipeline with the diameter of 48 inches (122 cm) that conveys oil from Prudhoe Bay, to Valdez, Alaska. The crude oil pipeline is privately owned by the Alyeska Pipeline Service Company.
The pipeline was built between 1974 and 1977 after the 1973 oil crisis caused a sharp rise in oil prices in the United States. This rise made exploration of the Prudhoe Bay oil field economically feasible. Environmental, legal, and political debates followed the discovery of oil at Prudhoe Bay in 1968, and the pipeline was built only after the oil crisis provoked the passage of legislation designed to remove legal challenges to the project.
The task of building the pipeline had to address a wide range of difficulties, stemming mainly from the extreme cold and the difficult, isolated terrain. The construction of the pipeline was one of the first large-scale projects to deal with problems caused by permafrost, and special construction techniques had to be developed to cope with the frozen ground. The project attracted tens of thousands of workers to Alaska, causing a boomtown atmosphere in Valdez, Fairbanks, and Anchorage.
The first barrel of oil traveled through the pipeline in 1977, and full-scale production began by the end of the year. Several notable incidents of oil leakage have occurred since, including those caused by sabotage, maintenance failures, and gunshot holes. As of2010, the pipeline has shipped almost 16 billion barrels (2.5×109 m3) of oil.

#2016# CPW successfully delivered pipes to Wintershall for the Maria offshore project in the Norwegian sea. The reel lay project is a water injection pipeline and the laying contractor is Subsea 7.
50Km of 12” 17.5mm DNVHFW 450 pipes were produced from state of the art 26” HFI pipe mill in Thisvi, Greece and were reeled in SS7Vigra spoolbase.
Worth mentioning are
• the enhanced dimensional tolerances for better fit-up and
• the pipe length of up to 24m compared to the usual 12m
which meant less girth welds, decreased preparation time and lower total cost.

Super Rigs: Troll Offshore Natural Gas Platform (Full Documentary)

Don't forget to SUBSCRIBE for more documentaries like this one.
Troll A was built by Norwegian Contractors for Norske Shell, with base construction beginning in July 1991 at a cost of 4150 million NOK, or approximately US$650,000,000 at the time. The base and
the deck were built separately, and were joined in 1995 while the base was partially submerged. The base is a Condeep gravity base structure built from reinforced concrete.
The Troll A platform is a condeep offshore natural gas platform in the Troll gas field off the west coast of Norway. It is the tallest structure that has ever been moved to another position, relative to the surface of the Earth, and is among the largest and most complex engineering projects in history. The platform was a televised sensation when it was towed into the North Sea in 1996, where it is now operated by Statoil.

Our concept is that of simplified but capable and very high quality mechanics paired with a cloud “brain” that enables very advanced data processing cross learning and continuous upgrading of the functionality.

The Port of Pensacola, like Pensacola International Airport and PensacolaEnergy, are self-sustaining business enterprises owned by the City of Pensacola. In this budget report, Clyde Mathis goes over the improvements on infrastructure, including the dock, warehouses and dredging. The current big player at the port is OffshoreInland, a marine and oilfield services provider that works on the huge ships docked at the port and is negotiating a 40,000 square-foot fabrication area. The port is also negotiating with another sub-sea contractor that was not identified. G.E.'s wind turbine production has slowed of late, but the company is warehousing some of its sails. The frozen chicken exports that were so successful have also experienced a downturn with new global competition. Mathis noted a recent and sizable cargo shipment to Colombia via gondola railcars that passed through the port. The port will get a new logo through the city's rebranding program.

The movie story deals with a kindhearted man, known as "Relangi mavayya" ("Relangi Uncle") by his family, lives in the village of the same name. His middle-class family consists of his wife, mother, niece Seetha and three children: two sons (Peddodu, "the elder" and Chinnodu, "the younger") and a daughter, Chinni. Peddodu is an introvert, who lives life on his own terms and is unsociable. Although Seetha wants to marry him, her love is apparently unrequited. Chinnodu is the opposite of his brother. He falls in love with Geetha, the daughter of Seetha's paternal uncle who is jealous of Chinnodu's father and denigrates his family's economic status. Although the family is close-knit, the brothers do not communicate well with each other. Geetha's sister recommends a marriage for Chinni to a relative of her in-laws. At the wedding, Peddodu and Geetha's father argue in the backyard about the latter's sarcasm, increasing tensions further. Several days later, the brothers plan to leave for Hyderabad to find work. Geetha invites Chinnodu to lunch without without telling him that her whole family will be there. Chinnodu and Geetha's father argue, again over the latter's sarcasm. When Geetha tries to calm the former, Peddodu is upset after knowing about their love affair. He abruptly leaves Relangi and Chinnodu, dejected, stays behind. This affects his relationship with Geetha, whose father has found her a husband. Although Seetha is also pressured to marry a man suggested by Geetha's father, Peddodu and distant relative Kondala Rao convince the bridegroom to reject the proposal. Relangi Uncle is injured in an accident in an attempt to save a young man. His condition stabilises, and the young man turns out to be the son of Peddodu's former boss' brother. The former employer apologises for his past misbehaviour, and offers Peddodu another job; the gulf between the brothers widens. Peddodu, Chinnodu and their family visit Bhadrachalam Templefor Rama Navami, the annual kalyana of Rama and Sita, and meet Geetha's family there. The guest of honour, an MLA, asks Relangi Uncle to participate in the procession. Geetha's father is surprised by this, and an electrical problem then arises. With help from volunteers and the police the brothers save the day, setting aside their differences and rescuing Geetha's family. Relangi Uncle praises the brothers for their courage, telling them about them the importance of family, love and brotherhood. This changes their attitude and that of Geetha's father, who is eavesdropping on the conversation. Seetha is overjoyed to see the brothers reunited, and for the first time, Peddodu calls her by name instead of "Hey!" and "Oy!". They are married, and Chinnodu and Geetha's wedding is planned after her father reconciles with Relangi Uncle's family. The brothers send gold bangles to their grandmother, evidence that they have found work.

Systems Engineering: An Oil Industry Perspective (Alan Christie)

The 2013Systems EngineeringLeadership DevelopmentProgram (SELDP) graduated eight new systems engineers.
The graduation featured keynote speaker AlanChristie, Vice President of Subsea Production Services, Proserv, United Kingdom, who shared stories from his decades of experience in the oil business. He emphasized that the team makes all the difference on a project. "It's about getting people to know each other and getting people to trust each other," Christie said. "You can take one player out of the system and the dynamics change, and you have to be aware of that."
